Behind the armor: Meet the members of the Armored Combat League's New York chapter

Meet the members of the Armored Combat League's New York chapter

Combat gets serious when you're draped in heavy armor, and these New Yorkers wouldn't want it any other way. The New York Sentinels, the New York chapter of the Armored Combat League, throw it back to medieval times when they want to go head-to-head in battle, opting to swing axes and swords at opponents while dressed in multiple pounds of armor. The group, based out of Harlem, is currently 60 members deep.
